Understanding the Difference Between Active, Inactive, and Sold Listings on Hoydoon 

Managing your property listings on Hoydoon is simple and efficient—especially once you understand what each listing status means. Whether you're a landlord, real estate agent, or private seller, being familiar with the differences between Active, Inactive, and Sold listings is key to keeping your portfolio organized and professional. It also ensures that potential buyers or renters see accurate, up-to-date information, which builds trust and improves your chances of closing deals faster. Staying on top of your listing status not only saves time but also helps you maintain a strong, reliable presence on the platform.

What Active Listings Means:  

Your property is now live on Hoydoon, making it visible to everyone actively searching for homes or rentals in your area. When a listing is marked as Active, it becomes part of the open marketplace—appearing in search results, showing up in personalized property alerts, and being eligible to be favorited by users. This means potential buyers or renters can easily discover your property, reach out with questions, and request viewings.

Use the Active status when your property is available and you're ready to engage with interested parties. It’s the best way to attract attention, start conversations, and move closer to closing a sale or securing a tenant. Keeping your listing in this status ensures you're positioned for maximum exposure and faster results.

Tips  

To get the best results from your Active listings, it’s important to keep them consistently up to date. Accurate photos, current pricing, and clear, detailed descriptions help build trust with potential buyers or renters and make your property stand out. Listings with updated, high-quality information tend to attract more interest, generate more inquiries, and lead to quicker decisions. Regularly reviewing and refining your listing ensures it stays relevant and competitive in a fast-moving market.

What Inactive Listings Means:  

Setting your listing to Inactive means it’s temporarily hidden from public view. It won’t appear in search results, alerts, or recommendations, and users won’t be able to send inquiries while it's in this status. This is a useful option if your property is not currently available—perhaps it's undergoing renovations, is occupied, or you're simply putting plans on hold for a while.

The Inactive status allows you to pause your listing without permanently deleting it, giving you the flexibility to make updates, adjust pricing, or revise photos and descriptions behind the scenes. It’s ideal when you need time to prepare your property or review your strategy before going live again. Once you're ready, you can easily reactivate the listing and resume attracting interest from potential buyers or renters.

Tip

Even when a listing is marked as Inactive, it remains securely stored in your account and fully accessible from your dashboard. You can view, edit, and update the listing at any time without starting from scratch. Whether you're revising photos, updating pricing, or preparing new details, everything stays saved and ready. When your property becomes available again, simply switch the status back to Active to make it visible to potential buyers or renters instantly. This flexibility makes it easy to manage your listings at your own pace while keeping your information organized and up to date.

What Sold Listings Means:  

Marking a listing as Sold (or Rented for rental properties) signals that the property is no longer available. This status update keeps your listings accurate and transparent, letting potential buyers or renters know right away that the property has been taken off the market. It’s a key step in maintaining a professional, trustworthy presence on Hoydoon. Updating your status as soon as the property is occupied not only prevents confusion or unnecessary inquiries, but also helps you keep track of completed transactions and build a reliable track record within your account. It’s a simple but important part of managing your listings responsibly.

Tip

Keeping your listing status accurate is more than just good practice—it’s essential for building credibility. By promptly updating the status of your properties, you show future buyers and renters that your listings are reliable and up to date. This transparency not only helps manage expectations but also strengthens your reputation on the platform. Over time, maintaining a clear and honest listing history enhances your profile and demonstrates a strong, professional track record that others can trust.
